Meeting Reservations

Basics

IMPORTANT: Meetings are events that DO NOT require additional event support, such as facility staff labor, ticketing, catering, AggieHost, etc. If your event requires any event support, your event will be classified as a Special Event.

All Registered Student Organizations (RSOs) receive up to 4 hours per week for free. You CANNOT culminate your organization’s weekly allotment. The 4-hour allotment renews every Sunday and expires Saturday.

Meeting reservation requests open shortly before each quarter.

    • Fall: 1st day of Fall quarter (NOT the 1st day of instruction)
    • Winter: the last day of instruction for Fall quarter
    • Spring: the last day of instruction for Winter quarter
    • Summer: After your RSO re-registers their organization

RSOs must submit their request two days before your event date to ensure enough time for approval.
